ALTEN
in India
Offshore delivery center for US and European projects

India is a key country for all industrial sectors. The potential of the local market is second to none, as the higher spending power now enjoyed by a growing share of the population is opening the door to consumer goods, particularly in the automotive and telecom fields. Modernisation of the country in the Energy (nuclear power option) or Defence (purchase of Rafale fighters) sectors will undoubtedly mean significant opportunities for French manufacturers.
Finally, each year the country trains more than 300,000 highly skilled engineers through its IIT facilities (Indian Institute of Technologies), turning the country into a centre of excellence in the IT and telecommunication systems sectors.

ALTEN is today the largest European Engineering and Technology Consulting firm operating in India and owns 3 of the largest sites, including Bangalore, India’s “Silicon Valley”, which has become the world’s 4th largest technology hub and which alone hosts more than 700 R&D centres operated by multinationals.

India represents a dual challenge for ALTEN: locally, the group supports R&D centres in the automotive and telecoms industries, in the branches of onboard systems, engine development and technical documentation.

At the same time, India is the ALTEN Group’s offshore development platform, serving major European and North American projects in the information and telecommunication systems sectors.
